Nope.

Buy the porter cable for about $70.

Rejoice that your car is white!

You can do it by hand, but it's a long and tedious process. The best and easiest way to remove swirls, as previously mentioned is a PC with either a polishing pad or a light cut pad. I would also recommend claying the surface prior to polishing.

See this thread and this one. Mind you, not all the stores are doing this as mentioned in some of the other recent threads.
